About this game

Father and Son is an adventure that takes off from the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, a cultural institution housing some of humanity’s greatest artefacts and treasures.
What begins as the story of a son who never knew his father becomes a universal and ageless tale, with the present and the past making up the setting for Michael’s travels. Seek for yourself the beauties of Naples, experience the last hours of life in Pompeii before Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, and explore the ordinary day-to-day life in Ancient Egypt. The past is what makes our present real.
Completion time: 50-60 minutes. Some sections of Father and Son are unlocked by checking in at the Archaeological Museum of Naples, publisher of the game. The Father and Son soundtrack is available for download on the official site.

Ratings and reviews

A short game which masterfully designed and crafted. Short game but everything is impressive. The music, the story, the art, the smoothness is something that no one would expect. Gameplay is very slow, but the atmosphere and music significantly helping me to enjoy it. Story is indeed a bit confusing, but it really make sense when you got it. The 2nd story is hitting me deep on my moral decision making and successfully made me shed some tears. A shame there is GPS-locked areas, but not a problem.

I really like the backgrounds and background music a lot. Its asthetically very pleasing and just like a museum. The story is engaging. The idea of time travelling and experiencing each piece in museum is ingenious. Few things that I had trouble with was that, as there was no narration of gameplay in the beginning, I felt lost as to what I should do. Next the character felt really tiny compared to my mobile screen, so it was difficult to spot it.

An emotional journey with beautiful soundtrack but it was so short, I wished the game was much more to bring than this but as a short game, it was beautiful but it could be much more better if you guys can put some tutorial about the things in the game For example I didn't know that when I touch the clock , it will change to the other character. I hope that you guys release more stuffs
